MRS-Japan promotes academic, engineering research and application of advanced materials via interdisciplinary exchanges among materials scientists and engineers in order to develop human society.
We have developed and innovated various technologies based on the material science, that have been developing our civilization. During the development in progress we are now facing various important issues, such as achievement of SDGs（Sustainable Development Goals. In order to fulfill these complex and interdisciplinary mission, Industry-academia-government collaboration and “Diversity” in various ways should be quite important in the Material science filed that secure Self-skepticism on the science and philosophy.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world. (Albert Einstein)” Imagination should be nurtured by the diversity in the fields of material science.
President of MRS-J Yuzo Shigesato
